Why Are Yoruba Landlords Afraid Of Igbo Tenants by shugamummy: 11:16pm On Oct 07, 2021
I noticed that Yoruba Landlords are usually afraid of Igbos being their tenants. Some Landlords do not offer any explanation as to why they do not want Igbos. But varying opinions have it that these Landlords hold a false belief that Igbos would outgrow them somehow even while living in their houses. Some say Igbos do not bow to respect their Landlords whereas others have it that Igbos usually bring their relatives to come reside with them.

What exactly is the problem with Yoruba Landlords or Igbos tenants?

A landlord I know rented to an Igbo but found it difficult to collect rent after tenancy and deposit ran out. Tenant stayed sans rent for two years and had to be paid to leave. He thrashed the place on the way out. Landlord said, "never again".

I for one wonder how to rent to anyone who desires the destruction of Nigeria wherever they say they are from. I'd rather rent to builders.

Its simply because they cannot manipulate or cheat the Igbos. Igbos won't allow it. So they prefer their "e Pele sir" people

It may be any or every of the following reasons;
1. Poor Igbo people are sit-tight tenants that rarely wants to move and Lagos landlords are greedy lots hoping for high turn over of tenants so as to get extra money from commission, agreement and damages.
2. If you rent out your property to one Igbo person, you can expect minimum of 10 people occupying that singular property. Lagos landlords know that the fewer the people, the better the property is managed but greed won't allow them do things the right way at inception.
3. Igbo people are often loud people, who exercise no restraint in showing their emotions, especially when they make little money. Every Igbo boy with little money in
his pocket is an Odogwu. South Africans can attest to that. Yoruba landlords are not any better with their numerous Owambes but they'll always criticize the Ndigbo.
4. Igbo people are mostly domineering and always tending towards assuming the landlord position in rented apartments.
5. When you get tired of them and decide to call off the tenancy deal, Igbo people never leave without raising a dust and Yoruba landlords hate the noise as that can spoil market with the next customer.
6. Deep mistrust and distrust of Igbo people and vice versa since civil war.
7. For restricted cosmopolitan nature and little exposure on the part of Yoruba landlords. Most of them never leave South West all their life hence they only relate from their cultural perspective and most Igbo people don't care if you understand them or not, they just do their thing.
8. Igbo people are independent in nature. They take no nonsense from anyone but some Yoruba landlords love playing God, hence clash of personalities is always in the offing.

Now you can come for my head with bashing but nah wetin I notice I write.
